You shouldn't need to use a specific WINEPREFIX, so THIS should work too:

Exec=wine start "C:\\Ace of Spades\\client.exe" "%u"

BUT of course if you're a proper Linux user what you'd do is:

cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Ace\ of\ Spades/
wine client.exe -aos://16777343

(that's the number for localhost, you can bash whatever valid number you like in there)

I personally have a symlink to the C: drive (ln -s ~/.wine/drive_c ~/c) and another symlink in there to the main AoS directory (ln -s ~/c/Ace\ of\ Spades ~/c/aos).
